Australia fire: Smoke to go round earth, says Nasa

US Space Agency, NASA has hinted that smoke from the massive bushfires in Australia will soon circle the earth back to the nation.

Massive infernos have raged along Australia’s east coast for months, pushing smoke across the pacific.

NASA said smokes from blazes around New Year’s Day had crossed South America, turning skies there hazy, and moved halfway around earth by 8 January.

Climate research chief, Richard Betts, shares the same concerns

Hundreds of bushfires have burnt across Australia, killing at least 28 people and destroying more than 2,000 homes.
